Hey guys so I was bookmarking some sites on my iPhone with the new 1.1.3 update and was noticing that meebo, engadget and gizmodo had custom iPhone icons. So obviously I was like damn that's cool I want one for my site! And come to find out its easy cheesy. Just create a 57x57 png and name it 'apple-touch-icon.png'. Upload it to your desired site folder and walla! There it is. Go bookmark your site and enjoy! And bookmark my site too! Thats that info. Thought I would share. You can see my icon at http://blog.projectx4.com/apple-touch-icon.png. Enjoy!
Info via blog.jotlet.net. He even has a template to create your own quickly. But you will have to crop it if you want it to fit properly.
Hey guys so I finally got around to buying the Mac Heist Bundle today. In case you haven't heard about it its a neat promotion they are doing to help out some charities and also give away a bunch of cheap software. Alot of it is great software to share with friends who are wanting to learn some highend products but there are a few really great tools for more experienced users. One I am most excited about is CSSEdit. A friend of mine recommended it a while back and I have been meaning to try it out. The package also includes a nice screen capture tool called Snapz Pro X. It will be the true value for me out of this bunch, cause I've been needing a tool for doing some screencasting and since the bundle is $50 bucks and Snapz is usually $70 it was hard to pass up. I can't wait to try them out! Maybe I will post a screen cast or two about them. Oh and last but not least is 1password. This might be a neat tool to toy with but I am skeptical of its security and what I could be giving up if someone was able to access it would be catastrophic.
Update:
Shewww... well its all over and I'm installing the new iPhone firware as I post this! Can't wait to play with the new features. I hope that it will store my login to gmail now! I'm sick and tired of having to login like 60 times a day to check my mail on there. Ok not that much but still. Bleh!
What do we think? We got a new Macbook, the Macbook Air, and also Time Capsule which I cannot wait to get my hands on one. I hate having to have my notebook plugged into a USB to be backing it up with Time Machine. I know, I know pick your battles but damn it is 2008 let's start using all this great technology we have available! Oh and the new Apple TV and the new movie rental deal which sounds ok. New apps for the iPod Touch thats a great addition to that product. Glad they decided on that. But most of all I can't wait to start using the iPhone 1.1.3 updated phone. Since I have one it will affect me the most right away.
Well I guess that's it for now. I'll try and post some more as news unveils today and people get their hands on some of these products.
Oh and last thing? NO CD DRIVE on the macbook air?!?!? WTF? That's going to be something to see how people like that! I mean really? Remote disc drive? Can an office have like 10 machines setup to use one disc drive then? To weird for me right now. But I am glad to see them add the gesture pad. Can you make that a firmware update to my macbook pro? please?!?!?!
Check out the Apple MacBook Air commercial also. Lots of Fun!
